I think the most cost effective anchor is the Manson Supreme.
They actually weigh a little more that what they are spec'ed at. My 15 lb MS is actually 18lbs. One or two others have said as much.
The MS holds almost as good as the Rocna at 7-1 but it's holding is extremely high even at 3-1.
The polished SS anchors may have a performance advantage in that I've heard they shed mud better when retrieving. Speaking of shedding mud the MS is probably weak on that score. I've never brought mine up w mud on it though.
